CONTROAIN FRAMES – standard 15 amp maximum per zone
Tool Diagnosis
A suite of functions which will trouble shoot the mold either on start-up or during normal operations, checking for faults such as:
1. Swapped heater or thermocouple wiring analysis (indicates affected zones if a fault is detected).
2. Heater power/watt monitoring to identify leakage.
3. Heater Resistance monitoring to predict heater failure.
4. Thermocouple Fault Analysis
5. Toolguard: Monitors performance of the molds cooling system and alarms if a failure in the cooling system has been
detected. If the VISIONS 3000 is interfaced with the molding machine, it can cease the molding operation before costly
damage occurs.
6. Surface Graphs: Provides immediate at-a-glance insight into the operation of all the zones on the tool by means of an
easy to understand 3-Dimensional depiction of the tool. Peaks & Valleys point out those zones which deviate from
baseline. This is a much faster method of determining out-of-tolerance conditions than other methods such as tabulated
data.
7. Trend Graphs: A selectable display of historic values showing both the measured temperature and power values. In
this way, problematic zones can be identified, something that can not be done using historical analysis only.
8. Visual Diagnostics: LED’s are visible through the front door providing immediate indication of the operation condition of
all the boards, fuses, and communications & processing activity.
Energy Savings
In today’s world of ever increasing energy costs, efficiently is a major concern. The Adaptive Thermal Control of the VISIONS 3000 adapts
power usage to the precise thermal requirements of the tool, balancing power demand to reduce temperature oscillation in the heater, thus
increasing control accuracy whilst also increasing the reliability of the heater and reducing energy usage.
? Adaptive Thermal Control technology provides an advanced algorithm tailored to meet the requirements of different molding
environments by delivering smooth, exact and balanced power to each heater in increments which provide the total temperature
deviation, thereby reducing energy usage.
? Each zone can be set for a maximum amount of power/current which can be applied reducing spiked energy usage. The
controller displays the actual current draw for each zone as well as the current draw for the complete tool.
? Even heating of the tool. Manifold & Cavity zones have there own unique PID algorithm which promotes an even and energy
efficient warm up of the tool.
Tool Database
The VISIONS 3000 system is capable of storing all operational tool settings for more than 100 different unique tools, each with its own
unique identifier.
Operator Interface
Two industrial interfaces are available:
1. Standard - Large 12” Color display - Key pad interface with hot keys and safety glass for durability
2. Optional - Large 12” Color display - Touch screen interface
User Defined Alarm Conditions
Alarm settings can be established on a per mold basis and stored in the database.
Each alarm trigger, for example thermocouple open, can be assigned a level and each level can be assigned an action, for example place
the controller into standby mode.

Data Logging
Data for all the zones within the system is stored within the VISIONS 3000 for up to 24 hours from switch on. This data is then available for
showing on the trend graph.
Data can be output to provide information too statistically analyze actual or average temperature and power by zone, group of zones or the
whole mold.
Data files are provided in CSV (Comma Separate Value) format, which can be imported into most spreadsheet programs.
Boost & Stand-by Modes
Boost: A temporary rise in temperature normally used to clear a cold slug on stat up. Boost operates on Cavity zones only. The increase
in temperature (or power if the zone is in manual mode) and the time that Boost is applied are both operator selectable. This function can
be saved in the Database.
Stand-by: Stand-by lower the temperature of Manifold and Nozzles to a safe range when the molding system is at idle. This process can
be manual or automatic. If connected to sensors on the molding press and feedback indicates the molding operation has ceased for a period
of time, VISIONS 3000 can place itself into stand-by mode, lower the temperature to a safe range thereby preventing the degrading of
plastic and saving energy. Stand-by operates until cancelled. This process can be saved in the database.
Manifold & Cavity Zone Control
Because of the differences in mass and operation of Manifolds & Cavities the VISIONS 3000 provides a unique
PID algorithm tailored to meet there specific requirements. By controlling Manifolds & Cavities independently,
smooth, efficient and even control of the mold results. In those rare cases where the normal heating parameters
just do not do the job; the PID characteristics within the VISIONS 3000 can be manually adjusted to fine tune
the heating operation of the system to the particular application.
Using a combination of a fast efficient algorithm and balanced power output to the heater, almost any heater is
capable of being controlled to within 1o degree F.
Graphs
Two different forms of graphs are available:
1. Surface: This is a 3-Dimensional presentation of a range of zones which can be edited to represent
the layout of the mold and provide an at-a-glance diagnostic tool, showing any heating or cooling
imbalance in the mold.
2. Trend: Permitting the display of up to 8 zones, the trend graph shows both the measured temperature
and output power values of the selected zones, enabling in-depth analysis of power demand for similar
zones and poor temperature control.
Soft Start
The advanced software within the VISIONS 3000 provides different tool strategies to satisfy the most
demanding production requirements. These include:
1. Manual Soft Start - Sometimes referred to as Bake Out, this manually triggered, 30 minute, Low-power
function removes moisture in the mold.
2. Automatic Soft Start - When the RUN function is selected, the power of all the zones are ramped from
zero. Due to their increases thermal mass, the ramp rate of the Manifold zones is greater than the
Cavity zones. Ramping power has significant advantages over ramping temperature – most noticeable,

any thermocouple fault condition that prevents temperature increase is a zone does not prevent the
complete tool from reaching production temperature.
3. Manifold Pre-Heat - It is widely recognized that heating the manifold zones before the cavity zones
allows the bushings to bed into the mold preventing leakage. The Manifold Pre-Heat option enables the
operator to select this function, if required and by permitting the operator to select the trigger
temperature at which the cavity zones start ramping, warm up time is kept to a minimum compared to
systems that require the manifolds to reach temperature before activating the cavity zones.
Security
The VISIONS 3000 has three (3) levels of password protection. Only the functions allowed by each level are accessible and the system
automatically resets back to the locked mode after a preset time interval.
Machine Interface (optional)
1. Discrete: The VISIONS 3000 has the capability of communicating with the molding press or production equipment using
conventional volt-free contacts. These signals include:
a. External triggering of: Run, Stop, Boost & Standby
b. External triggering of Production Halt, referred to as Motion Standby, this feature automatically puts the VISIONS 3000
into standby mode when an “In Production” signal fails. This prevents degradation of material and reduces unnecessary
power consumption.
c. Internal “Tool at Temperature” signal. This feature can be used to prevent production from commencing before the tool
is at temperature. Thus preventing short shots and tool damage, etc.
2. Ethernet: Ethernet connectivity allows for communications with any number of external devices.
Calibration
The ease of use and maintenance philosophy of the VISIONS 3000 is carried over to calibration of the system. The input circuitry of the
VISIONS 3000 has no potentiometers, removing any drift in the measurement of the thermocouple input. Parameters within the system
enable an offset to be applied to easily calibrate the unit.
Multi-Lingual
For world wide applications the VISIONS 3000 has multi-lingual capabilities. The following languages are built into the system: English,
Spanish, Mexican, German, French & Italian. Other languages can be easily incorporated.
Viewing Modes
For user convenience the VISIONS 3000 comes with three (3) viewing modes:
1. Medium Density - Displays up to 36 zones per screen
2. High Density - Displays up to 84 zones per screen
3. Low Density - Displays up to 18 zones per screen - includes a time line graph of measured power and temperature
Slaving
Zones with out thermocouple feedback can be linked to a zone with similar operating characteristics which has a thermocouple feedback.
This function can be stored in the database.
Communications
SPI communications capabilities can be provided.
